    Matt Hodgson has undergone surgery for a fractured cheekbone

    Emirates Western Force flanker Matt Hodgson has undergone surgery in England overnight to repair a fractured cheekbone suffered during the team’s 48-7 UK tour loss to Leicester.

    The 27 year old had been one of the WA side’s best throughout the campaign, playing in every match on the five-week tour.

    Emirates Western Force team doctor Mark De Cruz said Hodgson suffered a depressed facture of the cheekbone which required surgery.

    “Matt was placed into surgery overnight and has had a plate inserted to reinforce a fractured cheekbone,” said De Cruz.

    De Cruz said Hodgson will be fit to return to full training early in the 2009 pre-season.

    “2009 pre-season training kicks off on October 6 and at this stage Matt will be looking to resume full training on or about that date, give or take a few days,” said De Cruz.

    A small portion of the Emirates Western Force tour party will arrive home in Perth during the early hours of Wednesday morning (WST).

    “Let me put it this way, A Springbok team contains Afrikaners, Englishmen, coloureds and blacks. It has parochial foes in Bulls, Sharks, Stormers, Cheetahs and Lions. It is a recipe for war! Yet in all the years of John Smit’s captaincy, there has never been one unhappy customer, not one voice of rebellion against his leadership. He is the glue that holds the Springboks together. The man is a legend!”- Jake White
